India:
In Kashmir's main city of Srinagar, a strike shut down businesses and public transportation as marchers burned US flags and an effigy of President Barack Obama. When the protesters tried to march into the main business district, police fired tear gas and used batons to disperse them, a police officer said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to reporters. Protesters hurled rocks at the troops, he said. There were no immediate reports of injuries.
Indonesia:
In Indonesia, about 200 people from various Islamic groups torched an American flag and tires outside the US Consulate in the third largest city of Medan. Some unfurled banners saying, "Go to hell America," while others trampled on dozens of paper flags.
Yemen:
Yemen-based al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula recently issued a similar call for attacks on US diplomatic facilities. It is al-Qaida's most active branch in the Middle East.

The president will not come back to the White House and deal with these problems because the people would expect a news conference and would have to answer some hard questions.
1. What do you say to Libya who says you were forewarned of possible attacks to the embassy?
2. What did you so to protect the Libyan and other embassies?
3. What did you say to Sudan when they told you the Marines could not come and protect our own embassy?
4. What are you doing now to protect our embassies and Western interests?
5. Are American people visiting or living in Muslim countries in danger and is there a process in getting them out of the countries that are attacking American interests?
6. What are you doing to ease tensions in Islamic countries?
